THE NEXT ICE AGE - NOW!

.28 Nov 07 - "China is running out of fuel.
Police are guarding petrol stations in several inland provinces to
prevent fights, as shortages of petrol and diesel are causing huge
queues of trucks, buses and cars.

"In Kunming, capital of the southwestern province
of Yunnan, 1000 trucks are stranded.

"A truck driver named Li told the Chuncheng
Evening News he had been stranded at the Stone Tiger Gate petrol station
for three days after searching for fuel in other places, but failing. He
said his delivery date was way overdue.

"Another driver, at Geiju city, said a job that
would have taken one day in the past, now took three: one on the road,
two queuing for fuel.

"Nine days ago, a truck driver was reported to
have been stabbed to death in central Anhui province after a row about
queuing.

"A few days earlier, at Ezhou in Hubei province,
100,000 people were stranded, unable to get to work, because city buses
had run out of fuel.

"The problem would intensify as winter
approached, and was starting to affect exports, warned the Commerce
Ministry, since diesel was crucial for shifting products to ports."

What’s causing this shortage?
Government-controlled prices.
Long lines and non-availability - this is what
you’ll see in your country if Al Gore gets his way.
